Note: Takes place during the School Festival in "School Days of the ChronoLiner Riders".
Otome Gets Hers
Otome was looking around the school grounds for Kotonoha. When she'd heard that Kotonoha had left her post to enjoy the festival, she was pissed off. She knew whose fault it was though.
Ryuji Hasuma.
Ever since he came to this school he'd done everything in his power to circumvent her authority. It didn't matter if Kotonoha was their class rep, the rich bitch didn't have any real power. She didn't deserve to be class rep but somebody had to do all the work and Otome had better things to do.
Also, it didn't matter if Ryan or Vash were taking Kotonoha's place at the desk in front of the Secret Lounge, that was Kotonoha's job.
She spotted them in front of a stall in the schoolyard which sold takoyaki and they were enjoying them together. "Hey!" she shouted.
At that time, Kotonoha had been enjoying takoyaki. The delicious mayonnaise and bonito flakes seasoning them was just so good. When she heard Otome shout, she'd gasped but Ryuji was there. She felt safe with him.
"What is it now, Katou?" Ryuji asked.
"None of your business, Hasuma!" she snapped. She glared at Kotonoha, "And you, Katsura, get back to your desk!"
"I-" Kotonoha began.
"She doesn't have to," Ryuji cut in.
"Stay out of this, Hasuma," Otome said to him. Ryuji rolled his eyes. That was another thing that irked Otome. She always got her way but whenever Ryuji was in her face like this she hated it. She hated him for shaking up the status quo.
"What are you gonna do if I don't stay out of this?" he challenged. "Fight me?" He smirked. "Try it and your basketball career will be over."
Otome's fists were clenched tightly at her sides. Nobody had ever spoken to her like that and she hated it whenever she heard it from Ryuji. Oh, he was an outcast like Kotonoha but unlike the busty girl he simply didn't care what anyone though. He dressed and acted like a thug and delinquent, and also he was intimidating to boot. Otome wasn't about to show weakness in front of him but the way he looked at her was like someone who didn't deserve a second of his time.
"Come on, Koto-chan," said Ryuji. "Let's go try the crepes over there."
"Hey, stop!" Otome shouted. "Don't turn your back on me!" Ryuji turned to glare at her.
"Just what is your problem, Katou?" he asked. She was about to answer but he interrupted, "No, don't talk. Just stop talking right now. You know what your problem is? You've got a stick shoved way up your butt that you can't help but act like some bitch to anyone who doesn't see things your way. But who the hell do you think you are? What, is Kotonoha being happy a violation of your worldview? She can't be happy, is that it?" Katou opened her mouth but he cut her off again, "And the other thing you don't like is me, isn't it?" He stepped forward. "I'm someone who goes against you at every turn, and you don't like it, but you can't do a thing about it because you know I can tear you to shreds. Now, just shut up. Fuck you. Goodbye." He waved her off, took Kotonoha's hand, and led her away.
Otome shook and then noticed the crowd whispering around her. She gave Ryuji and Kotonoha one last glare before turning away, utterly defeated and humiliated.
She hated Ryuji Hasuma because he made her look weak.
